Bus 001 Device 054: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 Serial (UART) IC
```
This device must use "0403" for idvendor and 6001 for idproduct.
+* Some boards reset serial on power on. This can cause ser2net/telnet to disconnect resulting in the LAVA Worker being unable to program the board. This may be mitigated by passing LOCAL as an option to ser2net in the boards.yaml.
+Example:
+```
+ ser2net_options:
+ - LOCAL

Note on connection_command: connection_command is for people which want to use other custom way than ser2net to handle the console.
